Trick or Treating is a fun event for the entire family, but there are some risks.

Here are some frightening statistics from SafeKids.org when it comes to safety on Halloween:

On average, TWICE as many child pedestrians are killed while walking on Halloween than any other day of the year

Only 18% of parents use reflective tape on their children’s Halloween costumes

12% of children five years of age or younger are permitted to trick-or-treat alone.

Safety should always be top priority. Kids running around makes for a dangerous situation for drivers and pedestrians alike. If you are driving on Halloween, please add extra time to your commute so you can drive slower to prevent any accidents.
